What is your favorite switch panel? So, I want to upgrade to a nice N2O switch panel, but I dont know what one I like best, and I have only seen a few of them. What one should I go with?

Mine is a custom Beer panel, and no one makes a tricker custom panel. Talk to Beer, he maybe interested in making one to your specs? he is working on some f-bod styles right now. Here's a pic of my current panel, however, he has a tricker one in the works. I know it's a vette panel, but may give insight as to what can be done.

Thanks guys for the kind words, Nitro Dave's and HSW has some F-Body panels readily available, and are sponsors so be sure to take a look at their panels. I dabble in flat laminate style panels, and pretty much as hobby only.
Here is what I am working on, I hope to have some done in about two weeks. The fonts will be more legible on the next batch, and the issue I am trying to resolve is the cigarette lighter hole being difference form the earlier Camaros, this is an earlier model, the later models have a black ring around them requiring a larger hole.
The Camaro SS will be an option to
This is one I am doing for GLMS
No cutting of console needed. Black is the only color so far, looking for a dark grey laminate.
DynoTune should have some (similar to the first picture) by the end of the month. Not sure if they will fit the TA. May need some field testing
One with and opener may follow.

I use the NX 3 switch panel. It's a nice panel. Let me suggest something to look out out for however. I have accidently switched off my system when depressing the purge button. Admittedly, I have large hands and even larger with gloves on for racing. My activation/heater buttonm is to the left of my purge. When I reach over to purge I accidently, my downward stroke with my finger accidently shuts off system. Maybe my purge should go off with my arm b+ to indicate to me that I just shut down the system accidently...there are several things I could do. This is just a heads up.
BTW the truck panel a few posts up looks awesome.

I like the nitrous outlet switch panel. Just installed one with my TnT kit and get lots of complements. Nice how it hides under the ashtray also, so no one peeking to rob ya knows you might have a nice bottle in there to take.

thats the one i have, but i have the one with the "wrong" purge button, i still havnt called them to get the right one. but its one of the nicest switch panels i have seen and it is very high quality.
i didnt think a switch panel could be so sweet, if you bought it, you would understand what i mean

My friend just drilled holes in the bottom of his ash tray for his. That is also what im doing for mine. You can put the purge on the top right, and then on the left side you can fit 2 toggle switches. Just use the switches that come with the kit, and then you dont have to buy a switch panel. I think it still looks good and is stealthy since you cant see any switches until you open the ashtray lid, however the switch panels do def. look nicer
